I don't even hate that performance but I'm completely baffled as to why it finished in the top five. Was there passion behind her vote or did she place just because everyone saw the film and people couldn't think of other supporting actresses to support?<br /><br />People should have done what I did and voted for DeWitt multiple times.Jasonhttp://www.bentclouds.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8838733.post-68125103689094655482013-02-11T15:40:40.880-05:002013-02-11T15:40:40.880-05:00My happiness at seeing Jennifer Ehle in the top fi...My happiness at seeing Jennifer Ehle in the top five is dampened only by seeing her share the category with Anne Hathaway from a brooding Batman movie. Seriously, people?<br /><br />I thought I was the only one voting for her in recent years, but I now see that she had 8 votes last year. She's got momentum!
